Secret Santa 2010

Ed S · January 03, 2011, 02:22:01 PM

Received my package today. Thanks, Captain Canada.

But it's a double challenge. A Monogram RB-66 (the old box scale kit approx 1/83 scale) and a Fujimi 1/72 Alphajet. So tonight will be spent holding pieces of plastic together to figure out what I can do with these.

Still not got anything yet.....it was a bank holiday today though so hopes for tomorrow..........

Cool...glad she finally got there, Ed !

No post today here in Canada either, so I'll be keeping an eye on the mailbox tomorrow myself.

We've had a vicious no mail period here in the states as well, so I'm just being patient. Something I ordered from Japan about 3 weeks ago is still pending as well, so whattayagonnado?

According to Slerski, the post is pretty stuffed in France as well...
Do I live in the only country where the post is currently working...?
Also, as per last year, the end date is April 1st. It's not exactly easte, but it's easter-ish. I can change it if anyone complains to much, but not by that much. As I have indicated in the past I am not in favour of GB extensions. (Probably because I am a teacher, and I got really sick of things when a child asked to borrow a video camera so he could film his major Yr.12 project the day on which the marks had to be submitted to the assessment authority)

Got mine today....not one, but two Heller kits ! Both 72nd scale, Rafale A and Mirage F1 CR. Both kits and aeroplanes I have never built before, so that's super cool !

I'm thinking FLQ Navy.

Thanks Slerski !

Ah...I see your dilemma Hank. any helpful suggestons I may have will only get you into deeper trouble though...Although if you push the secret santa hard enough she may believe it. As Goreing once said 'the bigger the lie and the more you present it as the truth the more it will be believed'. Ya never know it might work, if it don't then you cam blame it on me.

Isn't it about time to start a separate SSGB forum in the Group build section? Some of us have started our projects and are ready to start posting photos.

Yes, unless you're in Queensland, I presume......

Hmmm, the mail, it disappoints. Still nothing.

Army of One · January 13, 2011, 08:07:01 AM

Army of One · January 18, 2011, 05:56:20 AM
